Apparatus for Measuring the Density of Solids
Product Code : SCL-PLE-12356
The Apparatus for Measuring the Density of Solids (SKU SCL-PLE-12356) is a density of solids apparatus with sample bodies of equal shape and size made from different materials, such as wood, plastic, bronze, aluminium, iron and lead. Students weigh each body and find its volume from the liquid it displaces, then calculate density. JaincoLab supplies it with a mild steel stand, a 250 ml cylinder and a 250 ml cup for school physics practicals.
Specifications
The apparatus has a 200 x 125 mm mild steel base with two 600 x 12 mm mild steel rods and a 200 x 10 mm steel rod, cotton thread, a spring scale, a 250 ml plastic cup, a 250 ml cylinder and bodies of the same shape and size in different materials; spring scale ranges are confirmed on the quotation.

Applications of the density of solids apparatus
The apparatus is used to determine the density of solid bodies by combining a weighing with a volume measurement, where the volume is found from the liquid displaced by the body or calculated from its dimensions.
- Determining the density of solids from mass and displaced volume
- Comparing the densities of equal-sized bodies made of different materials
- Checking the displacement method against volumes calculated from the dimensions of regular bodies
- Introducing Archimedes principle and buoyancy
- Properties of matter practicals in secondary-school physics
